This represents the shading effect of movable devices such as blinds, drapes, or shutters. Items that change solar transmission may also affect heat conduction. If so, a matching CONDUCT-SCHEDULE should be used. If the SHADING-SCHEDULE is not input, the schedule will default to 1.0 for all hours.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>“Solar gain” is the load incident on a space as a result of the sun/sky’s energy entering through a fenestration and being absorbed/interreflected by internal surfaces (floors/people/furniture…), manifesting as heat radiation in the process. If you have a window device or seasonal treatment that varies not only the light coming in but also appreciably affects the conductive transfer of heat through the window/frame opening, then define a CONDUCT-SCHEDULE as well to account for those effects.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>An aside to clear up a potential source of confusion: building shades can optionally be given a SHADE-SCHEDULE, which is in practice/function very similar to a SHADING-SCHEDULE for windows.
